Line AB example

Problem description: with LibreOffice math you can type many mathematical symbols, but you can't create any formula containing the representation of 'the line that goes through points A and B', which is very common in basic geometry.
The more similar symbol you can find is obtained with command 'widevec{}', which produces a scalable vector arrow that is positioned over the letters you put inside the brackets.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Math.
2. Search for a command that you can use to represent 'the line that goes through points A and B'. 
3. You'll find nothing.

Current behavior: Math lacks of a geometric line symbol. 

Expected behavior: a command that enables the user to produce something similar to the attached image.

              
Operating System: All

Thanks for reporting!

I can confirm this using Mac OSX 10.8.4 with LibreOffice 4.1.0.1 RC.

Kind regards,
Joren
